By definition a laser pointer is not capable of blinding anyone.

Lots of things can temporarily blind someone. A hand-held mirror, a flashlight in the dark, high-beams from oncoming traffic... Are these "weapons" as well?

And causing permanent blindness with a laser pointer at long range is a far-fetched idea.
